Smithson Valley HS Tournament This tournament completed May 2nd, 2026.

Detailed breakdown of how Liam's M-S-C-O tiebreaks were calculated. Tiebreaks are used to order players who finish with the same score, in the order M, then S, then C, then O. Byes have no opponent, so they are listed but not counted in the opponent-based tiebreaks.

M - Modified Mean [8.5]

The Modified Mean adds up the scores of every opponent Liam Nowka has played, then discards one of them depending on how Liam Nowka is doing.

Liam's score (2.5 of 5.0 possible) is exactly 50% of the possible points, so every opponent score is counted.

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score	Counted?
1	Elena Gallegos	4.0	Counted
2	Drake Dwyre	1.0	Counted
3	Cooper Sickles	1.5	Counted
4	Amaziah Grooms	0.5	Counted
5	Trinity Weiner	1.5	Counted
Modified Mean		8.5

S - Solkoff [8.5]

The Solkoff is the combined score of every opponent Liam Nowka has played, with nothing discarded. A higher Solkoff means Liam Nowka faced tougher opposition.

1	Elena Gallegos	4.0
2	Drake Dwyre	1.0
3	Cooper Sickles	1.5
4	Amaziah Grooms	0.5

C - Cumulative [4.5]

The Cumulative tiebreak adds together Liam's running score after each round. Early wins count more, because they carry forward into every later round's total.
